Backstage Hair Salon

I called to get my hair cut last minute and got a same day appointment with Debbie. I have fine, limp hair and usually end up just pulling it up in a clip. Debbie cut my hair to add in volume and afterwards showed me exactly how to style it daily. I’m 48 so I thought by now I knew what I was doing — nope, I learned a lot. The best way to tell if I got a good cut is… can I style it myself? Yes! A week later does it still look awesome? Yes! I’m so glad I went to Backstage and I will be back!

I totally agree; I’ve been going to Jeff for over ten years, and he’s phenomenal with cuts, color, and styles. Never unsatisfied!

One of the hardest things to leave behind in Charlotte was Craig. No, not a boyfriend — an AWESOME hair designer. I’m very picky over my long raven locks… you must be deft with a pair of scissors and have an imagination that can see what I’m describing. I usually try to bring pictures if I want a different color or style, but hair mags leave much to be desired these days.
After a bad trim experience at Ulta over the holidays, I went to my sister’s guy in Rocky Mount. I’d been to him once before, many years ago, and he did a fabulous job. He did so again — great cut and color. And the price is better than Charlotte…
Backstage has a new location in Rocky Mount, smaller than the previous spot but fewer chairs and hence more attention to clients. There is some hair product for sale here, though not my usual Kerastase and bumble & bumble. I’ll have to get that from somewhere else.
Jeff is the owner, and he’s very good, so you’ll want to schedule an appointment with him at least 2 – 4 weeks in advance. They are closed on Mondays.
